wrong add-ons

[gmontano]

I bought a US- Roaming 250MB data instead of 250MB add-ons

I understand that I can not use the 250MB that I purchased if I am in Canada.

Can I be reimbursed or change the add-ons option

@gmontano    Hopefully, by now you've received an account credit for the wrong data add-on purchase, however, just for clarification sake, the domestic data add-on is 200MB for $5 and the roaming add-on 250MB for $10. 

For another $5 difference ($15) it would probably be more economical to purchase the 1GB add-on since domestic add-ons don't expire and unused portions will be carry forward until completely depleted.

I made a similar mistake the other day and got my money back in about 30 minutes after contacting CS

Just open a ticket via:

https://widget.telus.tiia.ai/publicmobile/publicmobile.html 
Type "ticket" > Click "Contact Us" > Select your issue [Other] > "Click here to submit a ticket↗"

Fill in the Submit a ticket page with clear and concise details and try using your PIN for authentication. When the CSA responded, he did not need to ask any further questions and already credited my account.

No fuss, no muss 😊

@gmontano  you will need to contact the Customer Support Agents (CSA) and see if they can help you out.  As it is a prepaid service there is no guarantee that you will get a refund but hopefully, as it was a simple mistake they can switch the add-on over for you.  You can a trouble ticket through SIMon the chatbot by clicking on the chat bubble in the lower right-hand corner.

Generally, since Public mobile is prepaid, there is no refunds.

However, in your situation, most Customer service agents would be able to help you get the right add on.  

You will need to contact customer service agent (CSA):

Click on the chat bubble icon on the right lower corner of website to start ticketing process to contact CSA.  Type: wrong add on.  Follow the prompts to submit ticket.  

CSA may ask a few questions to verify account ownership and then should be able to help you. Response times can take a few hours.  Check your private message inbox (envelope in upper right corner of website).
